Recombinant Actifensin and Defensin-d2 Induce Critical Changes in the Proteomes of Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans

ABSTRACT Drug-resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans pose serious threats to human health because of their propensity to cause fatal infections. Defensin and defensin-like antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are being explored as new lines of antimicrobials, due to their broad ra...
